Set default value for combo box lookup field using CDS

[ThomasVDS]

Hi,

I am creating an app to manage the trainings of consultants.

I start selecting the consultant and want to add a new training (step 1).

In the screen to add the training, I want to see the ID of the consultant which is shown in step 1 (gallery 2).

I have been reading multiple posts, but no luck.

What is the best way?

I understood that you need to use the 'DefaultSelectedItems' property.

Do I use:

- lookup? (for ex LookUp('Consultants','Escent ID'=Gallery2.Selected.cref2_escentid,'Escent ID') -> NOK

- Choices & lookup  (LookUp('Consultants','Escent ID'=Gallery2.Selected.cref2_escentid,'Escent ID') -> NOK

- id & value ({id: Gallery2.Selected.cref2_escentid, value: Text(Gallery2.Selected.cref2_escentid)} -> NOK

Would be great if someone can help me out! 🙂

It was just too easy --> 'DefaultSelectedItems' property: Gallery2.Selected

Keep it simple it seems 🙂
